    If you start modding it, start a build thread. I'd love to have a Cherokee, but unfortunately I can't even afford to finish modding my Wrangler. It's a slow process.

    Sweet looking Cherokee! It looks right at home in the mud.

    OB Approved Recovery

    I belong to a local Jeep group and they offer different training all the time. Free too. When I first got my winch, I went to a Wednesday evening winching class. Learned a lot. I followed it up with searching out youtube vids of how to winch properly. I also learned to fasten the hook facing up...

    I save all my dryer lint. I put it in baggies and always have a ferro rod when out on trails.

    Hi-Lift Jack

    Oh sweet! Thanks for posting this. I was wondering how safe this would be to use on my tubular sliders. This helps me out tremendously.

    Lake Tahoe - Advice

    Please do. My current wife is wanting me to take her out there. We were going to head out there this summer, but last minute switch and now heading to the Appalachian Mountains. Next time I go, I want to see more of the area and visit some places.

    Lake Tahoe - Advice

    Lol, we brought our own booze for the reunion. We stayed at Donner Lake Lodge for four days, drank, grilled food and spent a lot of time in the lake. I really wish I could help you out. I'm surprised no one else on here has some recommendations for you. It's such a popular place. Really wish I...

    New light bulbs for Wrangler headlights

    I've been reading that too. I may reconsider which bulb I'll get. I'll look at the xtravision. Thanks.

    Lake Tahoe - Advice

    Both times I've been there was in the summer time. Most of it we did around the water, snorkeling, diving, swimming, etc. Oh, and lots of drinking, lol. I remember the last time we were there in 07', we took a tram up a mountain to a festival. I can't for the life of me remember what it's...

    Hi-Lift Jack

    I've also been looking at farm jacks at Farm and Fleet. Are they all pretty much the same thing?

    What is a tube adapter?

    Hi-Lift Jack

    I wonder if a dedicated trail repair/recovery forum would be a good idea?

    Hi-Lift Jack

    Thanks for the replies so far. Are there alternative options? I've been researching, and it appears that Hi-Lift is the most popular option for trail repair and recovery. I'm also considering the wheel adapter with the strap and two hooks. Found the Utube vids also. Good info for usage and safety.

    Hi-Lift Jack

    I'm finally adding a Hi-Lift to my kit. Those of you who have experience with a Hi-Lift, could you please provide some "do's" and "dont's"? Is the add on jack base necessary? Should I really try winching with it, if needed?

    Cabin Fever

    Twin Cities, cool. Photographed a wedding there once. It was a five hour drive from my home. It was cool thought. The wedding and reception was on Nicolette Island. We had a great time. That was shortly after the bridge collapsed.

    Lake Tahoe - Advice

    Last time I was there, we stayed on the California side, Donner Lake Lodge. Before that, I can't remember where we stayed. It was a long time ago. Really enjoyed Donner Lake Lodge though.
